Palm tree leaves and Ujawé initiation body designs (pattern of a leaf and uncurling fern fronds).
Felicity has painted the triangle design known as garore sigove’é, representing the leaves of the palm tree. Among the palm tree design are the beautiful Ujawé initiation body designs known as taigu taigu’e, pattern of a leaf, and jö’o sor’e, uncurling fern fronds. The border as well as the lines that run through the work are known as orriseegé or ‘pathways’ and provide a compositional framework for the designs.
